Real Challenge
At Matalan, we try to recruit from within wherever possible - which is why we look for the same qualities in our Deputy Managers and Sales Managers as we do in our Store Managers.
It's an intense, fast-paced business and we need people who thrive under that kind of pressure. People who enjoy being visible, and are just as comfortable out on the shop floor as they are making big commercial decisions. Ideally you'll come from a fashion background, although we're happy to consider people from other areas. Either way, you'll bring that rare combination of visual flair and the ability to manage a high turnover of stock.
Matalan isn't about systems and processes. We're a flexible, responsive business. Which is why we need managers who can react quickly and think on their feet. People with an entrepreneurial outlook, who are bursting with new ideas about how we can improve our business. If you're comfortable making decisions and taking risks, you'll find the opportunities to progress your career are there for the taking.
